Day/ Week in the life

Hi,

Would an expert on here be kind enough to provide a description of a day/week in their life whilst they were at MBB?

I realise that no two weeks would be the same but I think even a rough idea of a week would be very insightful.

Thanks!

95% practise, 5% theory. We can make 2-3 real cases in a session or split the time 50:50 between case study and general background

Hi,

Generally there are 3 "types" of work:

- Meeting with client's employees

- Internal team meetings

- Work on slides and XLS

Junior team members spend most of the times on XLS and slides (sometimes can be most of the day until late at night), while more senior members (engagement managers and higher) spent all of their time on client and internal meetings.

Hi,

It really depends on the project. Usually, you do the following:

Morning / day - client meetings, onsite activities, etc
Evening - Meeting with partners
Late evening, night - modeling, slides.
